I saw marget sells on NETG that filled about a half below the bid ... so a market order was a killer for that trader.
that is a "fear sell" ... whereas a limit sell would have been smarter

the nets are the most dangerous to use market orders....

but "normal stocks ... like nyse ... will most usually get stopped out at the actual bid at the time
